Interested in doing doc review while in school. Possible to do before taking the bar? If yes, any tips on how to find such jobs?

what do you mean you're "interested" in doing doc review?

There are a ton of jobs you can get in law school that pay $10-15 an hour. Be a Research Assistant...

No. Doc reviewers are attorneys who have passed the bar.

I was under the impression that doc review paid more than %10-15 an hour so I am interested in doing that as opposed to being a research assistant, etc.

If go to biglaw, you'll probably spend the next 2-3 years of your lift post-graduation doing doc review.

Why do you want to start early? It's not like you get credit that you can carry over.

I could use the money. Most internships that I have seen pay between $12-18 per hour for about 20 hours a week. Doc review seems like it can pay $20+ per hour and offer 30+ hours per week. (I am an evening student)

Doc review pays more because it requires licensed attorneys.

Financial reasons.

You can get $20 an hour teaching the LSAT. Might be easier on you too. At least it's not boring.
